CONGRATULATIONS
TO CALEB & DAN! On January

they upgraded from Technician to a General Class License. Enjoy those new HF
bands! The picture from left to right shows VE Larry (K0CL), new General Caleb
(KD0IGQ), VE Lyle (K0IV), new General Dan (KB1DSC), and VE Bob (K9MWM). VE FCC
testing is done after each Club meeting – see “Upcoming Events” for dates and
location.
DUES ARE DUE Our Club
dues run January 1 – December 31. Please give Larry (k0cl) a check at a Club
meeting or click here for the membership form and mail it with a check to the
address shown at the bottom of the form.
GOT MANUALS? We like to
keep Technician, General or Extra Class license manuals in circulation. Bob
Ludke (k9mwm) constantly gets requests for them and it is nice to hand one out
rather than have someone wait or procrastinate in ordering one. Please donate
recent manuals to Bob (k9mwm).
CLUB OFFICERS Current
officers will continue through November 2010 (click here for a list). Our
current officers have more than put in their time and done an excellent job.
Please support our Club by becoming an officer for 2011-2012.
